Data Management in BALTEX
Data relevant to BALTEX cover a wide range of disciplines, data types, periods, geographical extent, frequency and spatial resolution. The BALTEX programme has established an internal infrastructure in the form of dedicated BALTEX Data Centres for specific types of data. Several of these archives contain unique data sets with unprecedented features.
This infrastructure will be gradually superceded by a distrubuted data management based on operational, long-term data archives for the Baltic Sea region. With the extended objectives of BALTEX Phase II in mind requirements in this context have increased compared to Phase I. Additional data types will be dealt with and may define the need for additional centres and data centre functions.
